i know this can be done, but does anyone have experience with using a
computer to control on/off switches (or other types) around the house?
i assume one can buy adapters for wall sockets that can be controlled
by a computer. can someone let me know which ones are good ones? are
there free web interfaces (or open source programs) that can be used on
a computer to control the swtiches? and lastly, to keep this on topic,
has anyone used their Newton to do this kind of control?

thanks,
Tom Isenbarger
